Domestic Blockbuster Kalki 2898 AD Struggles To Match Shah Rukh Khan’s Dominance, Fails To BEAT Mammoth Record Of Pathaan & Jawan Overseas
In Bollywood’s competitive landscape, Kalki 2898 AD has encountered a challenge in trying to surpass the overseas success of Shah Rukh Khan‘s Pathaan and Jawan. While Kalki has thrived in the domestic market, it has struggled to match the international success of these two blockbuster films.
Kalki 2898 AD Falls Short Of Pathaan & Jawan Overseas Collection
Pathaan and Jawan, both starring the iconic Shah Rukh Khan, have set a high standard with their overseas earnings. Pathaan, released in January 2023, earned an impressive $47.88 million USD internationally, with Jawan close behind at $46.57 million USD. These numbers highlight Shah Rukh Khan’s enduring global appeal and his extensive international fanbase.
In contrast, Kalki 2898 AD, featuring Prabhas and directed by Nag Ashwin, has earned around $34.1 million USD overseas so far. Despite this solid figure, it falls short compared to the collections of Pathaan and Jawan. Although Kalki has been a domestic success, it hasn’t reached the same level of global achievement.
Shah Rukh Khan Starrers Still Dominate Overseas
The success of Pathaan and Jawan shows Shah Rukh Khan’s unmatched star power and the wide-reaching influence of his films. Both movies have set new records for Bollywood in the international market, making it difficult for other films to compete.
As Kalki continues to attract audiences in India, its challenge in rivalling Shah Rukh Khan’s overseas dominance highlights the significant gap in global appeal. While the industry watches to see if Kalki can gain more traction internationally, Shah Rukh Khan remains the reigning king of Bollywood on the world stage.
